Manama (Bahrain): The Bahrain Monetary Agency (BMA) has issued its first uncut banknote.
The 28-in-1 uncut banknote features 28 Bahraini banknotes, of BD1 denomination. The BD1 currency note was first issued by the BMA in March 1993.
Each uncut sheet of crisp, mint condition banknotes, which are real and usable, is 57cms x 50cms in size. The retail price of each sheet is BD35.
"The BMA is pleased to issue its first uncut banknote," said Mr. Farid Jassim Zubari, Director, Currency Issue, at the BMA.
The uncut banknote is a collector's item as well as a unique gift of money, suitable for many occasions.
"The notes are legal tender," said Mr. Zubari.
The BMA has minted 300 sheets, which may be purchased from BMA's Directorate of Currency Issue.
